Does Katie Have a Song? Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story, for ages 6-10
Does Katie Have a Song?
Last summer,a Katie & Kimble reader named Marissa posted some
questions and comments here on the Katie & Kimble Blog. She
really got me thinking, too! For example, Marissa and I have discussed Kimble’s song, Mr. Russell’s song, and even Twinkle’s song (sort of). So, Marissa asked me if Katie had a song.
Well, there is a song that I think of when I think of Katie. It’s not
really “Katie’s Song.” But for people who have read Katie & Kimble:
A Ghost Story, I think you’ll know why I think of Katie when I hear this song.
The song is called “Down by the Old Mill Stream.” It was written in
1910, and so it was popular when Kimble was a child. There is a line in
the song that goes like this:
(not the river but the stream)…
If you have read the first Katie & Kimble book (Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story), I think you can see Kimble’s sense of humor in this song (and you know which chapter I’m talking about!)
It’s sort of an “inside joke.” That means that only Katie & Kimble
readers will know what the joke means! I thought that was kind of funny!
So, thanks, Marissa! What do you think of “Katie’s Song”? I found a
free sample of the part I wanted you to hear over on iTunes. Listen to
it here!

Did you know that here on the Katie & Kimble blog, you can hear lots of songs from the Katie & Kimble chapter books?
Let me tell you about some of them.
1) Katie's SongIf you've read Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story,
you know that Katie gets in trouble on a bridge. This reminded me of
an old song called “Down by the Old Mill Stream.” This song was popular
when Kimble was a child. And it's sort of an inside joke, too. Can
you guess why? Listen here. 2) Kimble's Song
Before Katie met Kimble, Kimble was all alone in that big, old house for many years. At times, she was lonely and sad.
There is a song that reminds me of Kimble. I think of it as Kimble's song. It's called “Graceful Ghost Rag.” Listen here.
3) The Dreidel Songs
In Katie & Kimble: A Ghost Story,Kimble teaches Katie (and you!) how to play dreidel. Dreidel is a game
that Jewish children play during Hanukah. They use a spinning top,
called a dreidel. Listen to the dreidel songs here. You can learn how to say the different letters on the sides of the dreidel.
